Kevin Hart has suffered major injuries in an early morning car accident, US authorities say.
The comedian and actor, 40, was a passenger in a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda when the driver lost control of the car.
The car had been turning on to the highway when it tumbled down an embankment above Malibu in the early hours of Sunday, according to California Highway Patrol.
Hart and a second passenger, 31-year-old Rebecca Broxterman, were well enough to reach his home nearby for medical attention, CHP said.
He and the driver Jared Black, 28, both suffered major injuries and were later taken to hospital, however.
CHP did not disclose the nature of Hart’s injuries but TMZ reported that his back had been hurt.
Mr Black was not under the influence of alcohol.
Hart, a father of three, is known for his stand-up comedy and roles in movies such as Little Fockers, Ride Along, Central Intelligence, The Secret Life Of Pets and Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie.
